Quantum limited super-localization and super-resolution of a source pair in three dimensions
arXiv:1807.09853 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevA.99.022116
Abstract
A recent paper [Z. Yu and S. Prasad, "Quantum limited superresolution of an incoherent source pair in three dimensions," arXiv:1805.09227v2 [quant-ph] (2018)] considered the problem of quantum limited estimation of the separation vector for a pair of incoherent point sources in all three dimensions. Here we extend our analysis to treat the problem of simultaneously estimating the location of the centroid and the separation of the source pair, which is equivalent to localizing both sources simultaneously. We first calculate the quantum Fisher information for simultaneous pair centroid-separation estimation and then discuss the fundamental, estimation-theoretic trade-offs between the two tasks, which we confirm using simulations.
